ANAHEIM GAZETTE Member Weekly Newspaper Ass'n of Orange County HENRY KUCHEL, Editor and Publisher 1887-1985 Mrs. Henry Kuchel — Theodore B.

Something's come up that rates your most careful consideration. Orange county has an organization called "The Crippled Children's Relief" association. It's offices are located at 224 East Broadway, Anaheim, and at Placentia, P. O. box 548. They've been on the go now for 25 years, helping banged-up kids through some awfully tough stretches of their painfully begun lives. They've given out artificial limbs and eyes; they've given them braces, crutches, glasses, hearing aids, wheelchairs, corrective shoes; they've even given them vitamins, medicines, orange juice, milk, dental aid and hospital care, with operations, if needed. of proposition under the sun; but let's not fail these kids who need us now. If you want dollar for dollar in your business dealings, ride over to the association. It's just up the road. You'll return with a lump in your throat ... and a million dollars that was just given to you in a smile from the little girl with a new brace on her leg; or by the little lad who cried, "I can see! I can see! DESTINATION: CALIFORNIA No less than 300,000 veterans from out-of-state have settled in California. And that number is expected to be more than tripled by the time the tide of vet migration is completed. These veterans, according to Major General Graves B. Erskine, federal administrator of retraining, and employment, "have come to start post-war plans and are asking whether California is still a land of opportunity." Just how well that question IN THE D Sept. 28, 1871 Our attention has been drawn to a new style of a numb temporary hot-house, at dence of Dr. Hardin, for pose of growing orange trees in protecting the tree pestilential attacks of withering Santa Anas, serves the place of a h without admitting the rays of the sun, which is simply putting over them covered frame with hinges in the night.

Who says ocratic party is dead? A reservoir holding 70 lions has been constructed mile from Richland, whi The Orange county hospital was provided with another iron lung because of the donations instigated by this association; and they even had a baby incubator sent to the Santa Ana Valley hospital. Actually, the association doesn't specify any age limit. They'll help anyone in need with generous kindly and expert care. Some of their patients have been with them for as long as 80 years now; many for 10 years. There's one hitch to the whole proposition. The association exists on your donations. It's nice to read all about what they've done. You can sit back and say, "they're certainly a credit to Orange county." Sure they're a credit to the county! They've been a credit to the county for the past 25 years! Trouble is, they can't do their magnificent job with marbles... they need money, the good old American dollar. That's where you come in. You're proud of the organization because it's your organization. It needs your contributions, however. Every dime and every dollar you may give will help another human being toward a healthier and happier life. It's not that you'll be donating to help someone in a foreign country who you'll probably never see anyway. Your money will be put to work right here in Orange county! Is it possible that the little girl just down the road can walk because of a donation you made last year? Or that little boy with the crossed eyes... the association doesn't give him any sympathy you can bet! They take him right over to a specialist who fixes those little eyes so he can see just as good as the rest of us! If anybody would begrudge a dollar or two rather than see him sitting next to you in a local theater some day... well... you know folks, we're just got to run this hard old world on the "buddy system." The kids admire we grown-ups because whenever they're in trouble we're the first ones to help them out of it. No less than 300,000 veterans from out-of-state have settled in California. And that number is expected to be more than tripled by the time the tide of vet migration is completed. These veterans, according to Major General Graves B. Erskine, federal administrator of retraining and employment, "have come to start post-war plans and are asking whether California is still a land of opportunity." Just how well that question is answered depends on a substantial degree on the individual veterans themselves. The man who is alert and adventurous finds opportunities which others fail to see, or, failing to find them, he sets out to make his own. There are many reasons, however, why ex-servicemen now coming into California should find opportunity. Peacetime employment here is far ahead of what it was before the war due to our great industrial expansion, yet business and industry are still badly in need of more manpower. Future job opportunities rest to a considerable extent on the soundness of our long-range economy. But in this regard the outlook also has many favorable aspects. We can be sure that California is doing all it can to give the newly-arrived veterans every chance to fulfill their dreams and ambitions. YOU AND THE MATCH An ordinary match is not as destructive as an atomic bomb—if you don't get careless with it. But toss one—just one—into some dry grass or brush and chances are it will make the atomic bomb seem like a fire-cracker in comparative destruction. This is something for you to bear in mind, especially during this season of the year when California's timberland has become so thoroughly dried out. The protection of our forests and fields depends on you, and it is not a responsibility to be carried lightly. If you're driving along the highway don't throw matches or cigarettes along the roadside. If you're camping keep your campfire well under control. When you leave douse it thoroughly with water. It takes so little effort to prevent fires and it saves so much. Carelessness costs millions annually, destroys needed lumber, and mars the beauty of the California landscape. And it's all so unnecessary. You—yes, you—can elect by a majority Anaheim. Lewis is elected tenant governor by a mote 28—in Anaheim. The whisper ocratic ticket is elected-heim.

The doctor planted ten barrels of decayed oranges last spring and has now, after considerable trouble and expense succeeded in producing eight thousand trees, and would have had twenty thousand if he had brought his tree protectors into use before the advent of the grasshoppers. The spicy little Figaro of San Francisco makes remarks in this manner: "The Anaheim Gazette is jubilant, and breaks out in great rejoicing over the fact that the entire Democratic ticket has been elected—in Anaheim. Haight is elected by a majority of 21—in Anaheim. Lewis is elected lieutenant governor by a majority of 28—in Anaheim. The whole Democratic ticket is elected—in Anaheim.

By our San Francisco market report we observe that Anaheim wines command a higher price than Los Angeles wines, but smaller than the Sonoma vintage. Full quotations are as follows: For white and red wines, casks returnable, vintage of 1870, range 15 and 45. Los Angeles 20 and 25. Anaheim 25 and 28. Sonoma 35 and 45. We are informed that Justice Davis has disposed of his interest in the brewery to Mr. Goldstein, and will shortly move his office to the Enterprise hall building. By the new time table the N. P. T. company’s steamers now sail every five days. The California on her last up trip left San Diego one day earlier than usual on account of extra large quantity of freight to be taken on at Anaheim Landing. We make the world move a little.

Oranges At Ceiling Prices (Continued from Page 1) that the blackeye harvest nears completion. Orange county's lima harvest for quick freezing nears completion. Both quality and yield have been good. Harvest of late plantings of corn nears completion, with the quality reported as being fair. Walnut Crop The development of the walnut crop was favored considerably by weather conditions during the spring and summer, with the result that sizes are expected to average larger than last season and cracking quality will be exceptionally good unless a severe heat wave or two occurs during September. While the government's estimate of production is only 1,000 tons under the record crop of last season, the management of the California Walnut Growers association believes that the government figures are a little too high, so the association estimate is for 90 per cent of last year's tonnage or about 58,000 tons for the state. Southern California will probably produce a slightly heavier tonnage than last season and the reduction will occur principally in central and northern California districts. Truck crops made good progress during August in most areas with temperatures average for this season of the year. Hot days were usually tempered by high humidity which kept sunburn to a minimum. Most vegetable plantings were in relatively good condition with indication of good production on late summer and early fall crops. Car supply is still short and has curtailed shipments to some extent, according to the California Crop Reporting service. Markets in many cases REGISTRATION DEPT.

A reservoir holding 75,000 gallons has been constructed half a mile from Richland, which throws a stream of water fifteen feet high at the townsite. Two thousand feet of water pipe has been received from Los Angeles for conducting the water from the reservoir to the town. A little daughter of Dr. Higgins lately fell into the cellar which has been excavated for Kroeger's hotel, a depth of six feet, but fortunately escaped without injury. We have been shown by Dr. David Turner, a fine specimen brick of gypsum, of which he informs us there is an immense deposit convenient to Anaheim. Besides its use in the manufacture of statuary it is a valuable fertilizer. 50 Years Ago Sept. 31, 1890 The Christian church is rapidly nearing completion, and an elaborate program is being prepared for the dedication services to be held on October 4. The exterior of the church is all complete, and on Monday J. W. Keith and Elmer Knowlton put in the three large oval cathedral glass windows. The windows admit a flood of yellow light into the edifice, lighting up the interior and protecting one's eyes from the glare of the sun. Rev. J. C. Keith of East Los Angeles will preach the dedication sermon, and Rev. Ward will also be present and assist in the services. The edifice will be a credit to the city and those of the congregation who have been energetic enough to rear this spacious church upon the lot where recently services were held in a tent, are to be warmly congratulated upon their thriftiness and energy and enterprise. Mayor Rust has been engaged in wine making during the past two weeks and will probably be at it for a fortnight more. He has a two-acre vineyard of Carrigau grapes, five years old, from which the yield has been between eight and nine tons per acre. These vines show no trace of blight, and are entirely free from it. Arnold Staub has an old vineyard of the same kind of grapes at Placentia that went through the blight and never showed a trace of its effects. Mayor Rust informs us he is making an excellent quality of claret and port wine. Misses Zoila and Beatrice Smythe entertained a number of their friends at progressive hearts at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Rimpeau Tuesday evening. A most enjoyable evening's entertainment was participated in by all. Misses Martha Yorba won the first prize, a toilet basket, and Miss Agnes Nicolas the second, a flower vase. Billy Garlisle received the first gentleman's prize, an ink stand, and Morris Ray, the second, a match case, while the booby went to Fred Rimpau. Attorney Melrose reported to the water board Saturday that he had received from Col. Northam, of the Stearns Rancho company, the lease to the Tuffree reservoir at $60 per year. The lease containing a clause requiring the company to pay taxes on the reservoir property. Marshal Steadman had out his fire engine on Wednesday evening, giving her a test. He found the machine to be in good working order and the department ready to battle with the fire fiend on the least provocation. Richard Krebs was presented by his wife on Monday last at Santa Ana, with a bouncing boy. A Chicago paper received by R. Callahan contains a picture of Frantz's trained ostrich, which is now exhibiting at the Nebraska state fair, where it is being raced against a bicyclist. Charles Neipp and Miss Gert-rude Mason of Buena Park were married at sea off Long Beach last Monday. After spending a short honeymoon in Los Angeles, the happy couple will reside in Beuna Park where Mr. Neipp has created a post cottage during August in most areas with temperatures average for this season of the year. Hot days were usually tempered by high humidity which kept sunburn to a minimum. Most vegetable plantings were in relatively good condition with indication of good production on late summer and early fall crops. Car supply is still short and has curtailed shipments to some extent, according to the California Crop Reporting service. Markets in many cases were disappointing in August with F.O.B. buying very selective. In reporting on tomatoes, the service indicates that rail shipments from California are originating from harvest of summer acreage in San Diego county. This crop is making fair production and good quality fruit is being realized. The late fall accrue has made good growth in most of the producing areas in southern California, but it is not likely that there will be any appreciable volume available for shipping until September. In the San Joaquin Valley, the major planting lies in the Edison district of Kern county. The accrue in this section has made good progress and plants are generally in good condition. Crop prospects vary from light to heavy yields. The planting in Santa Barbara county has also made good progress, although most of this accrue is still a long way from harvest. Real Estate Men Okay Tax Court Proposition 5 on the November ballot, providing for the setting up of a court tax appeals to simplify and accelerate tax litigation, has received the strong support of the members of the California Real Estate Association, Glenn D. Willaman, executive secretary of the association, disclosed today. Referendum returns from 31 communities and boards throughout the state indicate a majority of sixty-five per cent favoring Proposition 5, Willaman declared. Present litigation requires two to three years before final adjudication, discouraging the small taxpayer from seeking redress for tax levies he considers unjust, proponents of the bill point out. During the past four decades, the tax structure has grown immensely complicated and many specialists have long felt the need for a special Appellate court to adjudicate disputes and clarify the law generally, as well as curb possible arbitrary action by tax and nine tons per acre. These vines show no trace of blight, and are entirely free from it. Arnold Staub has an old vineyard of the same kind of grapes at Placentia that went through the blight and never showed a trace of its effects. Mayor Rust informs us he is making an excellent quality of claret and port wine. Misses Zoila and Beatrice Smythe entertained a number of their friends at progressive hearts in honor of Miss Henrietta Gosch Sept. 22, 1921 The American Legion arena on North Los Angeles street will be open for the first time tonight and a splendid program has been arranged by the committee on entertainment. Some of the best amateur boxers in southern California are on the program for the opening night. The arena will seat 1200 people. The proceeds will be used in building the proposed club house. G. W. Sandilands, manager of the Anaheim Orange and Lemon Association predicts a shipment for the coming season of between 3850 and 3500 carloads of citrus fruit as against 3000 carloads for this season, basing his predictions on the fact that so many young groves will come into full bearing so that even if the older groves do not appear to be so heavily loaded the difference will be more than made up. W. A. Winney and Miss Rose Hatfield were married in Santa Ana last Thursday. The groom is a son of L. J. Winney of Placentia avenue. The bride is a resident of Orange, but formerly lived in this neighborhood. They will reside in Anahaim. Secretary Frazer of the Cham- ber of Commerce and F. K. Grisswell will go down to Huntington Beach Monday to arrange Anaheim's display at the Orange County Fair which opens Wednesday. The dispute between the Kiwanis and Rotary clubs as to which possesses the best baseball team is still unsettled. At the close of the ninth inning last Wednesday the score was ten to ten, and both teams were too exhausted to play another inning, consequently the game was decided a tie. There is a suspicion that the score man lost count in the excitement and decided to play safe by proclaiming the score a tie but as nobody else had kept tally his figures could not be disputed. Anyhow the game netted the Boy Scouts a hatful of money. A new daughter arrived last week at the home of Supervisor and Mrs. William Schumacher at Beuna Park. Mr. and Mrs. Jos Carroll are receiving congratulations upon the arrival of a son, born on September 10th, at the sanitarium. A son was born at the Mann apartments Monday night to Mr. and Mrs. Harry Ward. Mr. Ward is an employee of the S.Q.R. store. Present litigation requires two to three years before final adjudication, discouraging the small taxpayer from seeking redress for tax levies he considers unjust, proponents of the bill point out. During the past four decades, the tax structure has grown immensely complicated and many specialists have long felt the need for a special Appellate court to adjudicate disputes and clarify the law generally, as well as curb possible arbitrary action by tax agencies of the state, he concluded. The subways, street cars, trackless trolley coaches and gas busses of America's urban transit system travel more than 3,284,500,000 miles each year. Mrs. William Jackson and Mrs. E. H. Metcalf were hostesses to the Star Whist club Friday afternoon at the Masonic Temple, Mrs. J. T. Lyon and Miss Frieda Janas won high score. Dr. H. A. Johnston was a guest of the San Diego medical society last week and made an address before that body at a banquet at the Hotel San Diego. Mrs. W. P. Webb is at home again after a visit to San Francisco. Herman Dickel and his son, Percy, leave today for Pasadena where they will in future reside. Mr. Dickel recently sold his home place to the city for park purposes, but still retains property interests here. Mr. Dickel came to Anaheim September 16, 1885. He was engaged in general merchandise business and conducted the largest establishment of its kind in Orange county. His departure will be regretted by his many friends. Miss Philura Sparks visited friends in Los Angeles Sunday, REGISTRATION DEADLINE American citizenship carries with it many benefits such as freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of opportunity, and so on. But it also entails important responsibilities which every citizen must fulfill if we are to preserve and protect our democratic institutions and the principles and ideals for which they stand. It hardly need be said that the responsibility to register and to vote is one of the most vital of all. If we are to have a democracy in fact as well as in name there must be government through majority rule. Yet, few indeed are the instances in which the election of a candidate or the decision on an issue is decided by the ballots of a majority of all citizens eligible to vote. Most of the time a majority of the minority determines the results of an election. Such conditions enable political machines to dominate—to the detriment of good government. There is only one cure for the situation. All citizens must register and vote. The registration deadline in California is September 26. Be sure you register by that date. Do it today. CONSTITUTION DAY One hundred and fifty-nine years ago—September 17, 1787—the American Constitution came into being. It was born of great travail. The delegates to the Continental Congress had wrangled over it for months. Their disagreements at times had been intensely bitter. Yet, out of turmoil of that meeting in Philadelphia came a great masterpiece of legislation. In his "American Commonwealth" Bryce says: "... it ranks above every other written constitution for the intrinsic excellence of its scheme. WAC Band Is Reactivating The reactivation of a WAC band for duty at the San Francisco Port of Embarkation is taking place, according to the army recruiting office located in room 109, city hall, Fullerton. Ex-GI bandswomen with qualified MOS's (Military Occupational Specialty), ranging from reeds, brass and drums to the euphonium, are urged to apply at the recruiting office in answer to this enables any group to flaunt the Constitution. If the effectiveness of this great document is to be preserved then filibusters and the bigotry which it protects must be eliminated.
